CHICAGO, March 9.-The wheat market
was not quite rs tempestuous as on yester-
day, yet the deal was interesting through
out both sessions and at times was very
exciting. The opening scenes were very
wild. The market closed at S5Ic for NAV
deliveries last night, yet on the curb"
this morning purchases of May were made
as high as S6!c. When the gong sounded
on Change parties were paying S5as6c in
different portions of the room. There was
a quick decline TO sale, but within three
minutes had reacted to Soc. Prices fell
of to Soc and held quite steadily between ,
S5c and S5!C until the afternoon session,
when there was q severe break to sac fol-
lowed by q recovery to SAC, where the ,
market rested for the day. Corn advanced
fully = cents during the session and closed
l4c higher than yesterday. Outside orders
were more numerous and local operators
traded OF a larger scale. Oats were more
active and higher. Mess pork was quiet
and slightly lower. Lard was in active
demand; prices advanced 15a20c per 100
lbs. Flour-Unchanged. Wheat-Cash
